VIDEO CONTEST – The Dream Reborn « It’s Getting Hot In Here

This April 4th will mark the 40th anniversary of the assassination of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. People from across the US will travel to Memphis Tennessee to celebrate Dr. King’s legacy.

Quantum Shift TV and Green for All have created this special video contest to give YOU a chance to be among them, and attend the Dream Reborn Conference in Memphis April 4th – 6th.

The conference will explore ways to help build a green economy strong enough to lift people out of poverty and into prosperity.

Dr. King had a dream in his day, a vision of equal protection and equal opportunity. What does that dream look like today? What is your version of the dream? What is your vision of an economy that’s both green and fair — for you, your family, your community, the nation or the whole world? We want to know, and we want to send one lucky winner to Memphis!

So set up your web cam, and send us a short video (no more than 3 minutes, please!) describing what the ‘Dream Reborn’ means to you. We’ll pick the winner from among the top 3 contestants as ranked by the Quantum Shift community.

This contest is open to youth ages 14-22 in the US only. Videos are due by March 20th, and we’ll announce the winner on the 21st. That’s just around the corner. So get busy. What does the ‘Dream Reborn’ mean to you?
